Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| She is literally scratching 80% of the time, I've read that it could be a zinc deficiency or a food allergy but I have also read that it is bad to be changing diets with puppies. There's so much information out there and half of it is contradictory. I have a vet appointment next week but I could really use some advice on how to help her. My other pup is terrier breed and has never had anything like this.
Thanks in advance!! |

| There is another alternative (and really, probably more), have you considered 'pests' fleas, mites, etc? Possibly, also, fungal issues?

| Clean bill of health from the vet when I had her at the vet a few weeks ago. They said to change her food and come back if it didn't work. |

| Okay, what were you feeding her, have you changed her food and if so to what.
Please fill out that part of your profile that gives a location, you'd be surprised what we can guess if we have an idea where you are. It doesn't have to be exact but city / county, state will help. I live in the desert of southwest Texas and while a lot of things work the same, dog food tends to be regional and things our dogs can catch (in both senses of the word) are a lot different.

| Hi my pup Aspen has had itchy skin issues her whole life. We recently saw an amazing g dog dermatologist and my girl got an injection of Cytopint. We gave her the (lower) European dose and she is now itch free! First dose lasted 8 weeks. Also watch diet my doggy dermatologist suggests pork for dogs. No chicken and not a lot of beef. All pups are different thou. Try the cytopoint or look into it - it helped a lot. Good luck Watch zinc levels - too much can be fatal.

| Getting rid of all sources of chicken was the best diet-related decision I ever made. Eliminated itching and icky-tummy problems. Good luck!! |
